    Ostrich People: Job 39

    13 Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the OSTRICH?

    14 Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,

    15 And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.

    16 She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not hers: her labour is in vain without fear;

    17 Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.

    18 What time she lifteth up herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider.

    The ostrich has fluffy heavy wings, cannot fly well. Tries to outrun enemies.

    She lays her eggs on the ground in the dust. No protection from being crushed by feet. Exposed eggs to be food to others. Wanders off.

    No mother instinct to protect the egg till it hatches. Thinks they'll be just fine without her. Does not have reverence for the gift of life.

    May be unaware that she is devoid of wisdom and needs understanding on how to reproduce with success. Doesn't ask for help. Thinks shes a diva and can outrun the horse and riders life throws at her.

    Doesn't ask for help. Feeds on self-importance and doesn't know she has nothing others want.

    This is really a stunning reveal on ostrich-like behavior.

    Sometimes when I read JOB, I see mind-blowing truth about God
